Nope. I have to hit menu and select high quality then wait for rebuffer I'm always in a good 3G area. Wish there was a setting to watch high quality when available by default.

The Youtube app in my Liquid under 2.1 have an option to play always videos on High Quality, didn't test though since I don't have an unlimited data plan and I use Wifi.

We don't have root yet so system files cannot be rewritten.

Here it is (install as an update to the current app. No root is needed.
Thanks @simms22

Works great thanks! Just opened it with astro and the app manager had the option to upgrade.

Tha kinda worked but now the widget just says 'loading' It links to YouTube though so I guess thats good enough for now.

I had the loading issue also...remove the widget... Go to app management and clear cache uninstall updates... Then reinstall the update and restart... Works fine now with the most viewed videos...

Press home button, do other stuffs
Go back to youtube/browser
Play video (buffering is done)
Is this possible?

No it will not happen. Youtube app dont stream when u off screen. I also want solution for this.

I think the ICS multitasking updated will solved IF we will have ICS?
Sent from my GT-I9003 using Tapatalk

I don't know any mod that enables you to do that. But until this gets eventually solved you could use a youtube downloader to download the video in the background.

I dont really want to download the video before watching it, my n8's multitasking is way much better to our SL, thats is the only thing I want to ny previous phone lol

i have used every type of nokia phones since 4 yrs. I know everything about nokia hacking, platform etc. And now using this phone from march month. Android multitasking is somewhat different way. When u play vdo in opera or dolphin browser of android then it can stream vdo in screen off mode. Thats why I am saying that its an youtube app bug only.

Rihanna o.o

Does anybody know why most of my music covers is a weird picture Rihanna? I'm currently using Google Play Music.. It's so creepy and embarrassing when my friends use my phone and see this. Every time I download new music, this picture shows, so I was wondering if there's a music folder in my phone's memory that makes this the default picture cover for my songs.

It's embedded into the MP3 tags. I'm assuming you're probably downloading these songs from pirate sites? Usually they tags the songs with stupid pictures like that, or even ads sometimes.

Really? Ew wth why this picture

it's for all of my songs tho, except 4 who have proper songs covers. They all thought of embedding this one? THEY'RE TROLLING ME

its not from that. Its cuz the songs u have don't have pictures. So the available picture gets "synced" withstand he others. Used to happen to me but ton my HTC phones

Do you know how I can change this? =]

Or there's a hidden file that's a picture of that album art and it'll be the image for songs that have no image themselves.

nope. its if he downloads not from real places, the file extensions wont be the same. so like the genres will be alike or the theres no specific album name with no album picture, the one that does, will transfer on to the others.

I think you should just come to terms that you are obsessed with Rihanna. Its alright man. Her music ain't all that bad.

Are all your mp3s in one folder? If so then separate them and problem solved. You are having this problem cause in your root music directory you have a jpeg that might say album art or something

WHAT? I don't even have a song that's Rihanna! :'( I only have one featured by herrr. Do you guys know where this picture is, so that I can replace it?

I use an app called iTag. It basically lets you edit every single album/song cover for every one of your songs, it's really useful. I have troubles with album art until I found the app.

nice box xD

How did you get it?
I have lg gw910, but it's a gift from my friend from microsoft

Looks like he got it from the Windows Phone 8 launch event. They gave away a bunch of those phones in that box there.
Hey can you open the HTC clock app that now appears by default on the Start screen? Is it a new version of the HTC Hub app? Anything new or different? Does the time on the Start screen update in real-time?

How much do you paid? Or was ist for free? If yes then why?
thx in advance

You're correct on where I got it. The HTC clock app is new, but the features are pretty much the same as they've always been. So far that's the only "new" app in the HTC section of the market.
Edit: Actually, there is one new feature that ties in with WP8 and it allows you to use the HTC app on your lock screen. So you have a clock, and weather on your lockscreen, as well as a new background.

That's kinda disappointing if its the only app. I know its got Beats pre-installed, but what about stuff like HTC's panorama camera functionality? Flashlight still there and working? Attentive phone?

Hmmm, couldn't find the panorama function. Flashlight is there and pre-installed as well as attentive phone. I must say the wide angle front lense is pretty nice. Can't wait for the new Skype to be released.
Also, a feature that I hadn't seen or heard about before, is that in the camera you can install "lenses" so you can switch between using the "bing" lenses and using it to scan bar codes and such, to switching to apps such as "camwow". All within the native camera app

Performance is great, as always with most Windows Phone devices. It has a 1.5 dual core cpu for a OS that only really needs 1 core so it flys along. Build quality is great, the unibody and slim curved body feels great in the hand. Reception wise, I have full bars where I live so I can't say. And sense? There is no sense.... this is not Android....

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like you can. Maybe through Skydrive? Not sure though. Interesting side note, is that on WP7 there was Adobe pdf reader, and now its Microsoft's own pdf reader (the same can be found on Win8)

Wow! You're right! I just got finished installing Windows 8. I hadn't even opened a PDF yet so I checked it out. Yup. The default reader is completely different, as are the PDF file icons. I found a couple of traits I don't like in the new reader, but, just as I have been able to circumnavigate most Windows 8 issues by returning to the trusty old desktop, in looking at the tool bar in the top of the folder containing the PDF, there was an arrow beside the word "Open". This allowed me to open the PDF with the old reader, which worked as per normal on my network printer.
Back to the subject. It is a total screw-up that we STILL can not send a PDF with a WP8. This was a well known shortcoming in WP7. When are they gonna' fix this?
Aaaaaaargggh!

Someone told me that pdf files now show up in the Office hub so you can email them from there.
Here's a video that shows how: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=FE1xh1VF8v4#t=150s
Also, one additional question: If you forward an email message, can you edit the original email text? Thanks.

Can you possibly test the speed and reliability of push notifications? One thing Microsoft does not talk about is how or even if push notifications have improved. Test Facebook, Twitter, something. See how quickly notifications arrive, or if they even arrive at all.

Torrent Programs

Ok, so I had a really dependable torrent/converter program on my laptop, but recently it stopped working and I can no longer use it. Does anyone have a good, reliable, SAFE torrent/converter program (for Windows 7 Ultimate) that can download/convert music files from YouTube or another site?

Not quite sure what you mean, MP3 is audio, MP4 can be both audio and video. I think OP wanted to turn YouTube videos into music.
